Woodford Folk Festival is going to be BRILLIANT this year! I've just come back from the Organisers Group Meeting/ Programme Launch totally excited

The site looks sooo beautiful, more spacious and green, and the lineup of acts and performers is just, really *stunning*... 300 different events every DAY!!! for the 6 days; it is the best lineup I have ever seen in my 13 years there (including YES, the Cat Empire!)

AND.... TWO CIRCUS venues: the *Palace* for performances all day, and a brand new space: *Circadia*, in a magnificent spot in the heart of the festival, totally for workshops, including EVERY NIGHT with TePOOKa, other great spinners, and plenty of space and time for !! JUGGLE JAM !! space!!! PLAYTIME at UberWoodford!!

OK is that enough! Get the idea!! Get the tickets organised peoples, or volunteer (plenty of places left) for 5 hrs a day in return for a free ticket...and come on up... it is gonna be WONDERFUL!!EDITED_BY: newgabe (1194817454)

Posted:3rd Jan 2006Different thing! My safety buckets went very temporarily missing from the Circadia lockup, but were returned when the stage managers realised they were mine (had my name on). THe streeties dressing area was different- up near the Palace....

The supply and stores is more for things like venue chairs and bakstage fans.. not personal props. Lost property OR contacting Kelly who is in charge of street theatre would be the beswt way to go....

Posted:6th Jan 2006What can I say guys, woodford was absolutely amazing. It was my first time there, and will definately not be my last. I got volenteer which is a rather good way to get involved (for any of you thinking about it next year) I think I possibly had the best vol job in the place. We were restoking the bars, and damn we had some fun. Did any of you see those boys throwing ice to one another, or crazy men on golf buggies ladden with alcohol???? That was us.........It was a great way (volenteering) to meet some people, especially if you're at woodford solo. Saw some amazing bands and great preformers. Can't wait for next year......I think I'm hooked. Oh yea, and such a shame that you lost your monster head........what does one do with a monster head if they haven't got the body. If it's any consilation I lost a shirt, some sunnies and my pocket knife at woodford......oh yea, and my mind on a couple of nights. Peace out and see you all there next year. Come do afternoon bar store with me.....it's loads of fun
